The Brazilian footballer had settled this case back in 2015, but it was not handled properly, according to information from Spanish media confirmed by Efe. The AEAT pointed out that the prior settlement was based on corporate tax provisions and not as individual income, thus infringing Spanish tax regulations. The case is now in the hands of the state's financial prosecution, which will decide if there was intention to commit fraud or not.
